Noe Valley for Children: Places to Go

Noe Valley is one of the most sought out San Francisco neighborhoods for young families to live in. If you’re looking for place to raise your family, Noe Valley is one of the best places for it. Nestled in the middle of San Francisco, it’s not only easy to get all over the city, it’s also easy to get to family friendly places and activities. See five places we love to take our families to in Noe Valley.

Even simple days in the park are special at Douglass Playground. Whether you’re keeping an eye on your kids or swinging next to them, you and your family will make special memories on this playground. There’s plenty of grass for kite flying, lawn games, and space for Fido to run around, too. Plus, at only a 5 minute jaunt from the popular Philz Coffee, you can get your energy boost on your way to the playground.

Spark their curiosity at the Randall Museum which hosts exhibits on natural history, nature, and art. Learn about oceans, deserts, forests, & more in interactive exhibits that will fascinate them all day. They’ll even be able to pet bunnies, tortoises, and sea stars. We highly recommend Saturday Science days from 11am to noon.

Not just another playground, the Noe Rec Center hosts basketball and tennis courts, an indoor gym, baseball diamond, and more. You can find yoga for you and soccer leagues for your kids all in one place. It’s only a few blocks away from Mitchell’s Ice Cream which means you can always grab a post-park treat.

Make books come alive (and off the smart tablet). Check out Charlie’s Corner on 24th street for more than just their favorite books. Incite their imaginations during interactive storytimes, drop in for an art project, and even get your older readers into a book club.

Whether you’re excited for story time or are looking to have your kids’ leagues play near you, Danielle Lazier + Associates are ready to help you find the perfect home in Noe Valley. Contact us today.
